    Ok, then.

    Why won't you bother to answer my questions?

    Please do not speak for other forum members, just yourself because you are the only one responding.

     

    Is the KJV the inspired word of God?

     

    Where have I answered for others? I made an honest observation and assessment of what I have seen on these forums. And, I HAVE answered your question... just because the answer is not to your liking doesn't negate the answer. You can continue to ask the same thing over and over if you wish, but, I don't repeat answers over and over to try and fit your circular reasoning. Move on.

    Scripture is inspired, you don't doubt that, do you?

    The KJV is accurately translated from copies that came from the originals.

    The translators were not inspired but the words are.

    If the KJV or any other bible does not have the inspired words of God we are in trouble and can only give man made reasons for conversion.

     

    It is the spirit that quickeneth;

    the flesh profiteth nothing:

    the words that I speak unto you,

    they are spirit and they are life.

    John 6:63

    And nobody has denied any of this...nice try though.🙄

    I hope I did not imply that the translators were inspired; they did not say anything like that of themselves.

    I would like to know if some of the members of this forum consider the KJV as the word of God in English, as I do.

    If anyone claims that the KJV is the word of God, then it is (for them, at the least) inspired.

     

    All scripture is given by inspiration of God,

    2 Timothy 3:16a

     

    "We know where God's word is now..." does not make that clear to me.

    If it wasn't clear to you then your powers of comprehension and understanding are truly lacking. Did you or did you not quote from the Word of God? And to be clear, the way you are trying to convey the doctrine of inspiration here IS double inspiration. And again, I don't buy it.

    Thank you for responding.

     

    I did not catch that part.

     

    That brought to mind a two part question.

     

    These verses:

    Isaiah 40:8

    The grass withereth,

    the flower fadeth;

    but the word of our God shall stand forever.

    and

    Matthew 24:35

    Heaven and earth shall pass away,

    but my words shall not pass away.

     

    If you think these words are true

    and that His word is for ever,

    where is it now?

     

    Yet, when taken out of context they breed the likes of Ruckman. We know where God's word is now... apparently you're being intentionally obtuse considering you quoted from it.

    Dr. David Sorenson

    King James Bible Research Council

    video lecture, 44 minutes

    At times in my Christian life I have believed aspects of all four theories.

     

    David used to be my youth pastor at the Faith Baptist Church where I grew up. His father, Henry C. Sorenson was my pastor for nine years. David was not always KJVO', and once gave and encouraged my mother to read an NASB version of the Bible shortly after she got saved.

    I never wanted to come to Christ but He gently pursued me.

    When I finally realized I was going to stand in front of God and give an account of the things I had done,

    I WILLINGLY told Jesus that I needed Him.

    However, that was His work to make me willing.

    God pursues ALL of mankind and then COMMANDS them to repent. He draws all men unto himself, just as the Bible says. But, man can resist that call to repentance. That's personal accountability. If he had to MAKE you willing, you weren't willing at all.

    The bible says,

    There is NONE that seeketh after God.

    Romans 3:11

     

    They are all gone aside, they are ALL TOGETHER BECOME FILTHY:

    there is NONE that doeth good, no NOT ONE.

    Psalm 14:3

    I think you just answered yourself here... quotation of a Psalm by the Apostle Paul. So? Again, in no way whatsoever does this support your pet doctrine of Calvinism.

    What? One day you decided to call upon the Lord out of the thoughts of your own heart?

     

    The heart is deceitful above all things,

    and desperately wicked:

    who can know it?

    Nobody has stated this anywhere. This is a typical Calvinist straw man being thrown up. Y'all need to be getting some new lines.

    Jeremiah 17:9

     

    No, we are all filthy.

    He is the One that lead us to repent.

    It is HIS WORK IN US that leads us to repentance.

    Exactly! LEADS US, not MAKES US!

    For it is God

    which WORKETH IN YOU

    both TO WILL

    and TO DO

    of his good pleasure.

    Philippians 2:13

     

    Or despiseth thou the riches of His goodness and forbearance and longsuffering;

    not knowing that the goodness of God

    LEADETH THEE

    to repentance?

    Romans 2:4

     

    It's a mystery to me why He chose me.

    Ooopppss! There is that "God chose me, but didn't choose you" mentality.

    Perhaps I will be able to glorify Him some how.

    Thanks and praise be to God!

     

    We all would love to glorify God for all that He has done for us.
